ONE TOUCH SUMMARY
- Lamine Yamal struck twice as Barcelona won 4-2 at Levante to stay perfect in LaLiga.
- Barcelona's fifth straight LaLiga win moved them three points clear at the top of the table.
- Xavi Espart's deflected fifth-minute opener and Karim Adeyemi's stoppage-time goal bookended Yamal's brace.
ONE TOUCH INSIGHT
Five from five flatters a team that cannot close a door. Barcelona were three clear at Levante and nearly made a mess of it — Iván Romero on 79 minutes, Roger Brugué on 88, and a side with five points from five games had a grandstand finish. Lamine Yamal had already done the hard part.
The pattern is worth naming. Xavi Espart's deflected fifth-minute opener and Yamal's brace either side of the interval — the second from the spot — put Barça in complete control. Then the press dropped, Levante's substitutes found room, and it took Karim Adeyemi's stoppage-time fourth off the bench to kill a game that should have died at 3-0.
The goals are not the concern. Fifteen points, a three-point lead, and a bench that scores is a title-winning return. The concern is whether that final quarter-hour becomes a habit — and whether the next time Barça lead by three with twenty minutes left, it ends 3-0 rather than another 4-2.
WHY IT MATTERS
Barcelona's perfect start and three-point lead at the top frame the title race early, while Yamal's brace reinforces his status as the attacking constant in a side scoring freely.
TACTICAL FIT
Yamal operating as a two-goal threat gives Barcelona a direct route to goal alongside their creative play, with penalty duty adding another scoring channel, while Adeyemi's bench impact underlines their attacking depth.
THE DEBATE
Is LaLiga already Barcelona's to lose after five straight wins?

Lamine Yamal fired a double as Barcelona won 4-2 at Levante to extend their 100% start in LaLiga this season to five matches and move three points clear at the top.
Xavi Espart gave Barça an early lead via a deflection and Yamal struck either side of the interval, his second from the penalty spot, to put the visitors firmly in control.
Levante were rewarded for a spirited display with late goals from substitute Iván Romero and Roger Brugué to set up a grandstand finish, but Karim Adeyemi stepped off the bench to add Barca's fourth in stoppage time.
